About CoffeeBiz Tycoon
CoffeeBiz Tycoon is a unique mix of entrepreneurship fun and complicated business simulation. Start your first coffee kiosk, brew, expand, hire, deal with competitors, build a well-known brand, risk, and do everything else needed to build a prosperous and profitable business. Created in isometric pixel art graphic style by a single developer.
The game is not another ‘click and wait’ game. There are no loot boxes or ‘paid content’ either. Its a deep and detailed business simulation game which is highly difficult to “win”, you’re more likely to file bankruptcy.
